Chapter 208: Foul Play!
#1
They saw a message on the monitor.
‘Those who give love receive a big reward in return.’
Although he didn’t have any love to give Jaehwang didn’t forget to repay whatever he could. He could already predict what the gift would be.
Hundreds of monsters and a sixth tier monster? A job like this would be close to impossible for anyone else.
It was a very challenging situation so Jaehwang had to be very careful. He wasn’t tired yet but things were only getting harder.
He also found where Baekren was hiding but he hadn’t gone to get him just yet. Instead he chose to wait a little.
“Rumi.”
He said through the headset.
-Yes? You’ve been doing great so far!
Rumi replied in a bit of a shaky voice. Everyone seemed to be cheering in delight. Obviously they saw what happened to the monster.
She knew that Jaehwang could do it but something still didn’t seem right. Jaehwang seemed to be alright but it was strange that it was so easy to defeat the monster.
However, the entire battle was recorded for everyone to see as proof it was over.
It was like a miracle. The raid was finished. He finished it on his own.
-Let’s move onto the second part of the plan. Are you ready?
Jaehwang suggestd and Rumi then reply with a bit of uncertainty.
-I’m ready.
Jaehwang then smiled.
Even he couldn’t fully believe what just happened but he was thankful that everything was going great.
“Should we start right away?”
-Let’s wait 1 to 2 minutes. That should be the best time.
“Okay.”
Jaehwang then sat down and relaxed on a bench on the rooftop. There was also a small table in front of it with a few other chairs on the other side of it.
He could really use something to drink but there wasn’t anything around.
Then he decided to take out his tablet and check up on a few things.
“This is where we start.”
Jaehwang said pointing at a destination on the screen.

-What the heck is that guy doing?
With a spell Baekren cast he was able to see what Jaehwang was doing. There was something strange going. All he saw was him sitting on a bench and looking at his tablet.
-What is he doing?
-I have no idea…
The spirit in Baekren’s head replied.
-Maybe he can sense us watching him.
Maybe he did know Baekren was watching him.
He could have caught up to their plan and and planning a counter attack.
-He probably knows about our hiding skill…
Baekren suggested. He was afraid of what Jaehwang could have planned if he knew what he was up to. His plan was to cast a spell to make the monster to either destroy Jaehwang or make him run away. However, clearly that did not work.
-I don’t have a good feeling about this. I think we should retreat…
-I can’t do that.
Baekren replied.
-You could get seriously hurt.
-I have t do whatever I can to catch him.
Baekren said with determination.
It was clear that Jaehwang was stronger than him. The only way for him to succeed was to come up with a plan to out smart him.
Baekren pointed a finger at Jaehwang as if he was about to cast a spell.
-It’s clear that his arrows are very dangerous. Maybe I can use a spell to prevent him from being able to use his skills. This is the perfect opportunity.
-Yes. I guess so…
The spirit in his head replied nervously.
It would definitely be a lot easier for him if Jaehwang’s skills were out of the way. However, if he thought doing something like that would be easy then he was terribly misjudging.
-We don’t have much time. We have to hurry.
-Alright.
Baekren quickly got started. Energy began to appear around him as he started to cast the spell.
Soon there was a giant circle around him.
The circle stretch up to ten kilometers away. As everything started to come together Baekren began to look a bit scared.
“…”
His forehead became drenched in sweat. The spell was on its last few steps… It ended up attacking in a completely unplanned area.
Kwanggg!
There was a gigantic explosion causing the nearby buildings to shake.
It looked like the spell was being blocked from reaching its intended destination.
“What’s going on here!”
“I didn’t get him!”
Baekren shouted as he noticed the spell wasn’t reaching Jaehwang. He wasn’t even moving out of the way. The attack wasn’t even over yet.
Kwang! Kwanggg! Kwang!
This time the explosion was even bigger.
“It’s an explosion!”
“What?”

Sparks of fire were falling from the sky igniting the fires made from the explosions. The city was even starting to burn down.
-This seems to be working but a little gun power would work out better.
Jaehwang finished preparing for the solo raid and everything was going just as he planned. Gwanjae even helped him by letting them use a bigger helicopter and a high power machine gun.
Jaehwang used his tablet to find where the bombs were coming from and aimed the gun in that direction.
After checking over all of the information he reported everything back to Rumi.
-Looks like fun.
-This is a dangerous weapon.
-Can I try? Just this once?
The spirit asked. Jaehwang then signed and let her take control of the tablet.
-Be careful with that.
-Don’t worry, I got this.
She replied.
The spirit then quickly moved her fingers across the tablet and within a few seconds later she had a target set for the machine gun.
-How’s that?
-You found the target already?
Jaehwang asked in reply.
The gun was loaded and ready to shoot. It was an advanced machine gun that could shoot dozens of bullets within seconds.
-Yep.
-Wow.
Jaehwang said in amazement.
They shot the machine gun and then a circle opaque appeared in between two buildings.
Everytime the gun shot a bullet the ground would shake a little.
-It’s holding up well. But that doesn’t matter.
Jaehwang said looking at the direction the bullets fired at. It wasn’t in Beakren’s direction. His true goal was to examine the energy near Baekren.
Baekren was doing a very great job hiding but the spirit was able to find out a few things. In that moment Rumi then spoke through the headset.
-Jaehwang. The supporting team is here.
“The supporting team?”
Jaehwang asked in reply. He wasn’t expecting any supporting team this time.
-To catch the Bileons coming your way they’re going to help so you can keep focusing on the normal plan with no interruptions. Is that okay?
-Yea, sure.
Jaehwang replied. His only focus was on Baekren and understanding his spell.
“Do you think we can do something now?”
-We’re going to need a lot more bullets loaded up into the gun to do any real damage.
“Understood.”
He replied. Ten minutes later the attack chaos stopped. Everything was calm for a moment… however, that silence soon broke with a big surprise. There was a dark point that appeared behind him. It seemed to be coming at him at a slow pace but within a second it right in front of his face. A second later there was a huge explosion.
Kwangg!!! Kwang!
The explosion was so big that it reached high up into the sky. Even Jaehwang could feel the effects of the explosion. A cloud of thick dust filled the area.
“He can’t be dead.”
Foul Play! The end.
